bObsweep - PetHair SLAM Wi-Fi Connected Robot Vacuum Cleaner - Jasper

We recently moved to an open floor plan, ranch style home. It seemed ideal for a robot vacuum. The Bobsweep pet hair SLAM was on a steep discount for a new, high tech, mapping robot. Given the excellent return policy, we tried it out. Bob works great! We have mostly wood and tile flooring with some low pile and decorative area rugs. It cleans all surfaces very well. After running around the house a few times, there is little cat or dog hair left to be removed. It gets in all the corners and under the furniture edges without a problem. Because the LiDAR eye is a small raised disc on top, the sides remain low profile to edge under furniture. Bob even managed to go completely under some of our shelving and a storage bench. I understand older robot vacuums just bounced around the house without ability to remember what had been cleaned. Due to the mapping functionality, this device knows where it’s been and what is left to clean. Pretty neat! I also noted that the battery capacity is on the high end, with a long overall running time. They estimate it can cover 1400 sq ft. That might be a bit much in one charge. I’ve noted it comes back to the dock at 25-30% charge remaining. I’d estimate it did 800-1000 sq ft on a single charge. The mobile app has great functionality with a visual map of the home made by the vacuum on its initial few runs. One can specify room areas, no go zones, and request only certain rooms or even general areas be cleaned. Or just hit go and let Bob do the thinking and cleaning. We are impressed and find this a great value on sale at Best Buy. Robotic vacuums must be a competitive area right now. Regardless, this one is impressive in functionality, adaptability, customization, and definitely in value.

Wow, this thing is fantastic. Goes easily onto carpets and the app interface makes it so easy to program the schedule. This is my second Bob. Loved the first one, but really wanted the new SLAM. I gave the old one away as a gift to a friend because I figured the new one would be even more awesome. It is ;) The layout of my house is pretty complex and it amazes me that Bob always seems to find the dock. There's nothing like the fantastic customer care and support that the company has too. Solid product and solid company. Get one!

Bob is a pretty cool product. He maps out the home initially and does a great job and ensuring the entire floor gets cleaned by zig zagging through the house. He gets stuck from time to time, so you’ll need to removed specific rugs, cords, or things from the floor before starting him up. But the unit is great at stopping it before any damage occurred. Overall, the SLAM technology is pretty awesome. I added a picture of my daughters drawing of Bob, because in our home he's an addition to the family. He finds his way back to the charging dock and everything can be managed from the app, including a schedule, or even a quick clean in a specific area like the kitchen or kitty litter. Very happy with the purchase because he is much more efficient than a broom, or even vacuum and does the heavy lifting for me, since I have so much hardwood. One thing to lookout for: cost of replacement parts are pretty expensive. It does come with two extra brushes and an extra filter, but beyond that, they're priced at retail to make good profits on the replacement parts.

Bob officially joined our family back in December 2023 and he has been an absolute joy from Day 1. Sure, we had the initial training issues as are to be expected ("Bob! Stop trying to get under the couch! Bob! Stop trying to chew on the wires!) but with the proper boundaries established using the bObsweep app, Bob got his impulses under control soon enough. One time Bob forgot where he was, but after a quick conversation with support via email, Bob was reestablished in the household. Bob is perfect for pet-lovers and their hair, but I do have to say that he's frequently challenged in our household; ours consisting of three ladies and one young man, all with long hair that they like to sprinkle and fling around the floor throughout the day. Bob and I have had many a grumble session together as we cut, pry, and pull to untangle the mess from his mouth and whiskers! Our Bob also has personality. He shows grit and determination at getting any speck of dust or dirt from under and around every chair and table, his large googly eyes swaying back and forth as he shimmies his way between all the legs. Bob even has a sense of humor. He likes to clean reeeaaaal good right in front of the door that you are currently needing to use, such as a bathroom door for instance...this is obviously intentional and annoying at times, but that's just Bob. Sure, sometimes I wish Bob could empty his own diaper, but who knows; maybe sometime in the future Bob will get a new brother or sister that can! Suffice to say, we couldn't really be happier with our Bob and we hope he is around for years to come.

I think I received a defective bob! I kept getting a message the right wheel is stuck, which is not true. Also, bob didn’t know how to return to the base. I contacted the company and they were able to exchange it, but I decided to return and get a different robot. Customer service is good.

bObsweep is great when it comes to sweeping and getting up all the pet hair. I have a Shark robot for comparison and bOb definitely gets up way more hair and debris. Cons: He can’t go over cords at all not even a little or it will get trapped and possibly destroy your cord. I don’t feel it has the best mopping function compared to other robots but if you are looking to keep your floor vacuumed and clean from pet hair then I highly recommend bOb as I am able to walk barefoot in my home for the first time in a long time without pet hair sticking to my feets!

This is the best Robot Vacuum I have ever had. I like that I can set a schedule and forget about it. We love having Bob in our house. We have two Yorkies with long hair so our Bob comes on every morning to vacuum the whole house, both laminate and carpet. Once a week he mops the laminate floors. Also a great job. The support staff is wonderful also. Terrific Service.

This thing has changed my life! Now that my dog gas gotten used to it, Bob (I named him Pat) is at my beckon call. I can check on him whenever and wherever i am. Does a great job with pet hair, and literally makes me want to be a cleaner person... the pic is the map he made of my house.. Genuinely ecstatic to talk about this addition to the family.

Snagged this for myself for christmas. Once he maps out the house he’s pretty smart. However i had to block off a few areas where he kept getting stuck and a rug in my laundry room he always seems to get stuck on. I’m a clean freak and couldn’t believe how much dirt he still found. His mop function is ok for spot cleaning but if you think this will do it like you can you’re wrong. A full battery will complete my 1300 sq Ft house.
